Wand 101- As written by Elie with help from Mama

Step 1: Find wand stick Miss Jen gave you and that got left in the yard. Stop to chase dog, poke rolly polly, and take nap in the grass.

Step 2: Paint stick and hearts for end of wand. Choose colors carefully and make sure to add LOTS of glitter

Step 3: Choose a good ribbon to make the wand good for swirlling, waving and what-not Step 4: Let mama put wand all together then go play in the yard. Note to self, things not to do with a wand include but are not limited to: whacking baby sister. This does not make her fly, only scream really loud, which makes mama angry. Don't shove it up the dogs nose, either, even though it fits really well. This makes the dog grumpy and the wand wet

YAY! I'm glad that Elie made a fun fairy wand too (with your help of course). Grace talked about Elie, the rolly polly bugs, the dogs, and "ring-around-the-rosy" the rest of the day! I'm so glad our girls are such good friends (doesn't hurt that you are one of MY best friends too!)Check out my blog for the video I took when you get a chance...Love,Jen

This is Me

I am a daughter of a King, daughter of two amazing parents, sister to two fabulous women, wife to Matt, mother of 4 beautiful children under the age of 8, a teacher, a friend, a sister and daughter. I am a seeker of truth and asker of questions. I am a ridiculously idealist cynic. I am passionately reserved and an extrovert who needs her space. I am an information junky. A jack of all trades but master of none. I cook, garden, sew, create, snowboard, hike, ponder, write and try to take each day as it comes. I live under Grace that knows no bounds with a gratitude I will never be able to fully express.
